Hi, what do you think of having all your Python code packaged in an OS-specific packages (like RPM or DEB) and installed with system-wide package manager like yum or aptitude?

I'm the latest victim of this, thank you so much for the fix and giving me my day back.

lost about 1 hour with this. I knew it was related to uwsgi_param, but I had no clue that it has to be in the uwsgi_params file. I was trowing it in the site configuration.

Another thank you for this. I did have to make it as far as figuring out that is_secure uses wsgi_scheme before I found this, which took me a while.

In the hopes of making this post show up in more searches, here are some keywords:
build_absolute_uri doesn't use https; Django https http; Django is_secure returns False even on https;

"Another advantage that I wanted was the ability to make multiple "personal" commits to your local copy of the repository before pushing major changesets to the central repository "
Could you eloborate on this point? what are the commands you use for this operation?

really nice :P but took me a while to get it working. I am new to Jquery. well, I would suggest adding an example, this way it will be super easy to integrate this nice piece of code.

I just had to rewrite comments/commment.html and comments/comments.html with right IDs to make it work.

Thanks for this post. It's been very useful for me. One note, however, is that if you deploy the code with a folder in the path called /code, as you describe above, and you try to run Django's manage.py shell, you will get an error due to a conflicting Python library called 'code' that the shell uses. I now keep my deployed code in a /sites/mydomain.com/src directory, and that enables me to use the Django shell in that environment.

A nice tutorial, thank you.

As an aside, and you may have fixed it by now, I would be reluctant to use the if...check in nginx -> it notoriously slows down nginx, especially as you are doing a I/O check and an if statement on every request.

Unfortunately, I've been away from this too long to remember. I'd suggest looking at the Postgres documentation. It's a little difficult to find what you're looking for sometimes, but there's a wealth of great information there.

What happens when Master goes for a reboot and Hot Standby becomes the new master. Would the old Master become the new Hot Standby automatically or would it sit and wait for your intervention ?

Sorry. I didn't see that.

You're right, squash is better. When I wrote this post, though, I wasn't aware of that option. If you read the italicized note at the top, I suggested using squash instead when I found out about it. :-)

Jonathan Robson — Thu, 12 Apr 2012 15:04:03 -0000

Why not use "git merge --squash"?

thank you for this :) we've been looking for something exactly like this, where the master branch isn't cluttered with a large number of commits

Instead of installing PIL globally and then linking to it from the virtualenv site-packages directory manually, another option is `pip install pillow`. It's a packaged version compatible with setuptools, etc.

I found it originally via http://stackoverflow.com/qu...

For some reason, I'm getting a 500 Server Error each time I try to upload a package to my pypi. Any ideas how to debug this?

UPDATE: the URL in .pypirc has to have a trailing slash.

Thanks, great article! I'm having a issue starting the app, getting the error:
